Illegal Hevron Hills Mosque Destroyed

Bulldozers of the Civil Administration for Judea and Samaria (Shomron) destroyed, Tuesday morning, a mosque that had been built illegally and against court orders in the southern Hevron Hills Palestinian Authority village of Al-Mufkara, next to the Jewish community of Avigail.

The razing of the mosque followed a petition to the Supreme Court by the Regavim movement, after the movement's field coordinator, Oved Arad, saw the illegal construction.
